Hatch Identification pls

[Rincewind]

Hi,
Can someone identify this hatch please.?
It is on a 1979 Sadler.

The rubber seals are crumbling, where can I get new seals?

???

I think that's a Houdini.

Try Seals Direct on line. I recently bought outer seals from Houdini but the glass is sealed into the frame with sealant, not a replaceable seal.

Yes it looks like a Houdini hatch, you can probably get a new rubber gasket/seal from these people Rubber Door Seals | Rubber Extrusions | Window Rubbers | Boat and Caravan Seals | UK

Another guess at it being a Houdini, my 1981 Sadler has a Houdini fitted.

More expense.!

More expense

What about even more money and buy a new and better hatch ? I wasted time trying to get a similar hatch to stop leaking and I kind of did but only rain proof, not sea proof.
I bought a size 60 (597x597) Bainbridge storm hatch for £200. Now I can have it ajar while raining whilst locked, has external levers/openers , stayless and opens 180 degrees
Unfortunately the cheapest seems to be £250 but a worthwhile upgrade ?

If it is not Houdini, then check Foresti & Suardi Hatches - Foresti&Suardi S.p.A.
